Mining for mates

Dating feels like mining. Trying to find the diamond in the rough, or the nugget of gold amidst the river wash. If it were mining I would try to find a quartz vein and dig deep along it to find the gold that is found near quartz veins, but what is a great, intelligent, humble, considerate, loving man's quartz? What is their vein that I can dig along to find a pocket of good ore? For that matter what is the quartz for a funny, loving, intelligent, caring woman?

Why does it seem harder than ever for people to find their gold?
